Beauty and the Bodyguard

“It doesn’t look like it’s going to end that easily, does it?” Lin Yi shook his head.

At first, he had thought that perhaps it was because of the disagreement between Minister Han and King Han on how to treat him, which led to Minister Han’s loss of power in the Han Imperial Residence.

But now, it seemed that things were not that simple.

“My King has gone mad,” said Minister Han after a moment of silence.

“What?”

“What’s going on?” Lin Yi was shocked. An expert at King Han’s level, how stable is his primordial spirit? How could he go crazy?”

On the way here, he had thought of all kinds of possibilities, but he had never thought that the real problem would be the King of Han himself.

It was true that compared to the top-notch experts of the royal power like the King of Qin and the King of Zhao, the King of Han’s strength was indeed much weaker.

However, his weakness was only relative to monsters like King Qin and King Zhao. To the other cultivators below, he was still an unattainable powerful existence!

“My son has gone mad too,” Han Changshi laughed bitterly.

“Who did it?” Lin Yi reacted instantly. King Qin’s mansion?”

King Han had gone mad, and the heir to the throne had gone mad as well. This was undoubtedly a devastating blow to the entire Han Imperial Residence.

Prince Qin’s Residence had already been prepared to attack Prince Han’s Residence. Now that Bai Shizu was leading the investigation, it was the perfect time.

They had the motive and the strength.

“I don’t know. I’ve been investigating for the past few days, but I still haven’t found any leads.”

Although Minister Han said so, from his expression, it was obvious that he had already set his sights on King Qin’s residence.

He had no clue and only focused on the specific technical means. However, if he wanted to talk about the mastermind, there would be no other one other than Prince Qin’s residence.

“Were those people from King Qin’s Mansion?” Lin Yi frowned.

“No, they are from the Lu family of Liaojing Prefecture.”

“If it’s just King Qin’s mansion, we’ll be under a lot of pressure, but we’ll still be able to stick together. But now that House Lu is involved, things are getting troublesome.”

“What does this have to do with House Lu?” Lin Yi asked curiously.

He had some information about the Lu family in Liaojing Prefecture. Like the Li family in Fengtian Prefecture, they were the first force under the seven kings ‘mansions. It was said that they were very rich and powerful. Even the seven kings’ mansions could not compare to his family in this aspect.

If not for the remote location of the Liaojing Prefecture, the Lu family’s influence in the inner court would have been raised by at least half a level.

” The second day after my king and the prince met with an accident, the Lu family of Liaojing Prefecture arrived. They also brought my king’s other son,” Han Changshi said with a bitter smile.

“Huh?” Lin Yi was stunned. Are you sure he’s King Han’s son?”

Han Changshi nodded helplessly.” I’ve confirmed it. It’s the son of my king and the second daughter of the Lu family when he was young. However, we haven’t been in contact before this, and my king has never mentioned it, so we don’t know.”

“What a coincidence.”

Lin Yi was speechless for a while before concluding,”So, the situation is that King Qin’s mansion and House Lu are working together to take out the roots of your Han mansion?”.

Han Changshi nodded silently.

The other party had done this. It was no longer a conspiracy, but an open conspiracy.

If both the Han King and the prince met with mishaps, the son sent by the Lu Family of the Liaojing Prefecture would be able to officially enter the Han King’s residence.

Although Prince Han’s Mansion was one of the seven great mansions, it would not be easy to deal with it. However, with the power of Prince Qin’s Mansion and the Lu family of Liaojing Prefecture, it was not a whimsical thing to take this opportunity to change the household register of Prince Han’s Mansion.

Under such circumstances, it was no wonder that no one in Prince Han’s mansion could leave.

Just by looking at Guardian Han’s current state, one could tell that he, the second-in-command of the Han Imperial Residence, had been in a terrible state.

“A lot of people were bribed?” Lin Yi reacted quickly.

” A lot,” Han Changshi corrected.” A lot.”

The ones Lin Yi had just met were obviously masters from House Lu.

And if it wasn’t for the fact that the interior of the Han Residence had been heavily infiltrated, even if these people could enter the interior of the Han Residence, they definitely wouldn’t dare to make such a big fuss and directly take over the Han Residence.

In fact, the internal structure of the Han Residence had never been as united as a board when faced with the immense pressure from the Qin Residence.

There were many people who advocated surrender.

It was just that in the past, it had been forcefully suppressed by King Han.

Now that the situation had changed drastically, this group of people had risen again. The key was that the son of King Han was here. Not only were they legitimate, but they could also obtain a lot of benefits from the Lu family of Liaojing Prefecture. Why not?

Don’t forget that the Lu family of Liaojing Prefecture was a real big financial backer. Especially in this matter, they would definitely pay any price!

After all, as long as this matter was completed, it would be equivalent to taking over the entire Han Imperial Residence.

To any force, this was something that they could only dream of!

“What do you plan to do now?” Lin Yi asked.

At this critical juncture, the person in front of him was the one who was being tested the most.

It was true that Guardian Han was the second most important person in the Han Residence. However, with the current situation of the Han Residence, even King Han himself would be under immense pressure, let alone Guardian Han.

In addition, the Lu family of Liaojing Prefecture was definitely trying to rope him in.

If Han Changshi lost even a little bit of his integrity, he would not hesitate at all.

After all, he was working for someone else anyway. What was the difference between working for the King of Han and the Lu family of the Liaojing Prefecture?

In this way, he could also join King Qin’s Mansion and turn a strong enemy into a strong ally. Why not?

“My life was given to me by my king,” replied Han Changshi in a deep voice.

His attitude was resolute.

“What do you need me to do?” Lin Yi nodded.

” This matter involves too many forces. I didn’t want to involve you, Brother Lin. But since you’re here today, I won’t be polite with you. I do need your help with something.”

“Please go ahead, Brother Han.”

Regardless of whether it was public or private, he would not stay out of the matters of the Han Residence. Otherwise, if he allowed the Han Residence to be controlled from behind the scenes, it would cause the power of the Qin Residence to rapidly expand. It would definitely not be a good thing for him.

Right now, he was still unable to face King Qin’s Mansion head-on. He needed the other seven kings to stand up and resist, using time to exchange for space.

Otherwise, even he himself would only have the option of joining King Qin’s Mansion in the future.

This obviously wasn’t in line with Lin Yi’s interests.
